I was REALLY excited to see kind of a DTF knock off in Utah lol especially when it comes to their xiao long bao. When I came, the wait was quite long, so please try to make a reservation! Their menu is quite extensive with a lot of traditional asian dishes you don't see often. Unfortunately, when I dined, their menu was changing so a lot of the dishes I wanted to order were not in stock! I ordered a few of the veggie dishes - they were all delicious and quite sizable! I highly recommend the garlic eggplant. I also ordered chicken wonton in hot and spicy soup, as well as veggie fried baos. These dumplings were both less than average. The soup the wontons came in was lacking a lot of flavor. The baos were nice and soft, but that's not what I wanted when ordering a pan fried baos - I want the nice crunch! However, it didn't have that. Overall, I will come back to try out some other items, but I will skip on the pan fried baos and wontons next time. Oh - but the restaurant is nice and clean.

Great authentic Chinese food, specifically Sichuan cuisine, made with fresh ingredients. Good portion size as well. Beautiful elegant traditional dinning area with very friendly staffs. What truly stands out is the care and heart put into every detail—from the creative and exquisite tableware and thoughtfully designed menu to the charming takeout bags. Space is clean and neat, well-maintained. It is a really wonderful place for family/friend dine-out for an exceptional Chinese dining experience (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))) highly recommended

This was our second time coming here. Both times we have gotten the pork bao, which is really yummy! My wife loves the steamed baos . The second time we came, we got the spicy pork in oil sauce and it was really good. They use a small peppercorn that is common in Chinese dishes that has a citrus taste and a tingly sensation when you bite into it. Not my favorite, but that is a me problem 😂
